Han Fan winked at the people behind him, and Han Jie and others stepped aside knowingly. Only Murong Lan stood side by side with him. Murong Lan turned to look at him and said, "Thank you, Prime Minister Han, for arriving in time.
Otherwise, I’m afraid I’ll have to put in a lot more effort.”
Han Fan said respectfully: "I have to thank Princess Lan for helping me. If it weren't for you, I'm afraid all the musicians would have been killed. Then all my efforts to protect them in the past few months would have been in vain. Moreover, I will also
It ends the possibility of finally making peace with Liu Yu."
Murong Lan nodded: "This is a war that should not have happened at all. For the sake of someone's ambition, countless people have suffered. Not only the Han people who were taken captive, but also so many Xianbei people have lost their lives because of this."
Tens of thousands of family members still don’t know what kind of trouble will happen when the real news of the death comes. Therefore, these Han people can no longer stay in the city."
Han Fan frowned: "Princess Lan wants to let them all go?"
Murong Lan said sternly: "Yes, if these more than a thousand Han people are brought back to the city, I'm afraid that when the defeat on the front line comes, especially when the list of the dead comes out, those Xianbei households who have died in their families will definitely look for them.
Vengeance, this is the character of us Xianbei people who must avenge themselves. Even you Han officials may be in danger. Taking them back is tantamount to death."
Han Fan gritted his teeth and said: "But this is equivalent to releasing thousands of prisoners without permission. These people have special status and cannot be dealt with by ordinary Han people. If you do this, you will probably get yourself into trouble. Big trouble."
"
Murong Lan curled up her lips: "I, Murong Lan, will bear all the consequences alone, and I thought that if I was the one who caused big trouble, it would never be me who let go of the thousands of Jin Han people, but it would be me who caused unnecessary trouble between the two countries."
war, and was unable to defeat the Jin army, causing great disaster to the black-robed Imperial Master. Even if His Majesty comes back, I will definitely seek an explanation from the Black-robed Imperial Master in front of him!"
Han Fan sighed: "The princess's unparalleled courage and love for justice put men like us to shame. When will the princess let them go? There are still some Xianbei soldiers guarding here, I'm afraid..."
Murong Lan curled up her lips: "In the name of responding to the defeated army and reconnoitring the military situation ahead, I will take the defenders here and Yu Wen Hailan to call these righteous people out, and then you will take them in the name of letting these people cut down trees.
Cut wood in the Happy Forest in the southwest and find an opportunity to let them go. If anyone pursues them afterwards, you can say it was my arrangement. Before I came here, I had already found more than thirty of my old men and asked them to ambush them there.
If you pretend to be a Jin army and suddenly rush out when the time comes, you can take advantage of the chaos and scare away the Xianbei sergeants escorting you, so even if they are traced, you will not be blamed!"
Han Fan asked in surprise: "Princess Lan still has her subordinates working for her?"
Murong Lan nodded: "We who engage in intelligence should always leave a force for emergency use. Although the Lanhua secret guards were disbanded and even died when I was imprisoned this time, there are still some underground people who were not in the original establishment.
The men and horses are available for me to drive, but it was only because I had to gather people that I was delayed for less than half an hour, otherwise I should have been able to save more people."
Han Fan sighed: "It's difficult for Princess Lan." At this point, he glanced at Murong Lan's abdomen and frowned slightly: "But Princess Lan, you are pregnant now, I'm afraid..."
Murong Lan shook his head: "It doesn't matter, I haven't shown my belly yet, and while my actions are not affected, I hope to resolve this matter. It was us who negotiated peace with Liu Yu to question the black robe and release the prisoners."
First of all, I understand my husband. He is not someone who disregards the lives of the people for the sake of his own achievements. If we give him an explanation, we, Dayan, may still have a way to survive!"
Han Fan frowned: "Princess Lan really thinks that Liu Yu will not destroy my Dayan this time?"
Murong Lan sighed: "If Guanggu can be captured easily, or if the Jin army besieges it for a long time, it can destroy our country, Dayan. But if our army and the people are united and Guanggu is a fortified city, if Liu Yu feels that attacking
If the damage to the city is too great or the lives of the people will be devastated, then we may not necessarily attack by force or besiege them for a long time. We will have the conditions to make peace and negotiate with him. Whether it is ceding territory or becoming a vassal, it is better than destroying the country."
Han Fan nodded: "Princess Lan is my Dayan's last hope. At this time, only you can quell this war and bring peace to the people. I will go right now..."
While he was talking, he heard the rapid sound of horse hooves from the south. The air was full of smoke and dust. He was approaching quickly from ten miles away. There was a faint sound of thunder. Murong Lan's face changed slightly and she looked towards the place where she was riding.
He said: "I'm afraid there are tens of thousands of horses coming, and I don't know which army they are. Prime Minister Han, please quickly take the people and leave as I told you. I will go to reconnoiter and ride."
Han Fan shook his head: "It's too dangerous. If the Jin army comes, princess, you..."
Murong Lan gritted his teeth: "If the Jin army is really coming, I will go forward to buy time to defend. The military situation is urgent. Prime Minister Han, you act quickly and appropriately. If necessary, you can release these Han musicians directly on the spot.
Now, let them run for their own lives, and only one of them will survive."
Having said this, Murong Lan turned to the more than a hundred Xianbei sergeants who were still supervising the Han musicians to lift the corpse and said loudly: "There are cavalry coming from the south. They don't know whether we are the enemy or not. All the troops must enter the city quickly!"
These Xianbei sergeants were all Su Guards and well-trained. Some of them had already noticed the cavalry coming from the south. When they heard Murong Lan's words, they instinctively wanted to drive those Han people into the city. Murong Lan said in a deep voice: "No need."
Ignore them, move quickly, enter the city quickly, and close the city gates."
A centurion said solemnly: "Princess Lan, our duty is to monitor and protect these Han people, I'm afraid..."
Murong Lan said loudly: "The Prime Minister of Han is here to manage them, so you don't need to worry about it. Now return to the city quickly, mount your horse and follow me to attack. At the same time, ask Murong Lin to close the city gate tightly and defend yourself! Blow the trumpet quickly and let the cavalry in the city attack with me.
.”
The centurion nodded, took out the horn from his arms, and blew it. The sound of the horn was rapid and sharp. Soon, a series of commands and roars sounded from the top of the city, and hundreds of people could be seen.
The sergeants were running around at the top of the city, and in the direction of the city gate, more than two hundred horsemen filed out. The leader was none other than Yuwen Hailanhu. At this moment, he had put on full armor and was holding a big ax.
He was full of murderous intent. When he saw Yu Wenlan, he directly cupped his fists and said: "The last general Yu Wen Hailan has re-enlisted in the army. In accordance with the order of General Murong, I came here to listen to Princess Hou Lan's dispatch!" At this point, he pointed to a white horse next to him.
Kongma, "This is for you."
Murong Lan nodded, jumped onto the horse, and put on the helmet: "Follow me!"
